It was just after eight pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and me were resting talking about the recent footy, prepared for the 8th fuel drain for the day to arrive. In due time we had the phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had arrived at the Esso petrol garage in Connahs Quay and put petrol in a diesel BMW rental car by mistake. The poor lady was rather distressed it seemed, stating "I can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that such things regrettably can happen. She was able to move the car to a secure space and, seeing as it was no more than a short distance from the office, we could arrive at the woman almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she was able to return to the hotel she was residing in. Despite the fact we got very wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive off relaxed and not so stressed. A job in Flintshire well done in my mind!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Flintshire we have seen increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mainly due to people not being aware of the right way to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly do not switch on the motor - not even to shift it into a parking spot. In case you have started the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious issue to deal with in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel can potentially bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out fully, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both circumstances fairly easily.

Be aware however that so long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will likely be wholly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
